It's possible to have everything with smart engineering.

The BRZ, for example. Or -- in another category all together -- the Hyundai Sonata. It's lighter than our car, yet it's a feature-loaded comfortable family sedan.

Honestly, we just had to put up with a lot of bad design in the 90s and early 2000s. That led to more weight than anything else.
